It's just really annoying that you're already way past the age of 13 and you still can't spell right and use punctuations properly.
If you post pics of the gf, all will be forgiven.

Our longest has been something like Atlanta to around Newport News, VA, in one drive. We have taken greater trips, but not without stopping overnight. I enjoy driving the car, however, the seating can cause me to get a bit stiff after about 8 hours.
That drive sounds like it would be a pretty interesting trip! It also sounds like you made pretty decent time.

Capitals and punctuation do make your post easier to read, as does actually spelling words. Although I understand what you are saying, I am sure it is helpful for our members who did not learn English as a first language. (Soapbox off)

Out Of Control!!
I've driven by myself from n NJ to New Orleans and back over a week (between taking the CPA [down in flames] and the start of my current job 7 years ago), taking the redneck path on the way down (NJ-PA-TN-AL-LA), and the coastline on the way back. Drove to Savannah and back last year, and have gone to the Outer Banks multiple times (parents' condo in Duck - fall rentals are still available - act now!!
). I really like my coupey for long drives - I went to Toronto two weekends ago in the crx, and it made me appreciate the smurfmobile even more.
